Last Minute Hauls, Anyone?

Alright, so with the buzz of Chic Week there were TONS of posts about hauls, I'm not even going to lie, I took full advantage of CW and made 2 hauls and a third last night! Though the majority of the money spend and products purchased was for friends and family (I'm their resident Sephora-holic and rounds everyone up when I get a coupon), I did get to do a tad of shopping for me.

What I want to know is, did anyone here make any last minute hauls, and if so, what did you get? Was the ticking of the clock and the tempting discount that finally drove you to making your purchase? Was it just timing and you were finally able to make it in a store or shop online? Did you finally get that email notification of an item being in stock?

I ordered a big bottle of Wen (the cucumber aloe) and Origin's High Potency Night-A-Mins cream. I was in need of a new evening cream; my favorite from Soap & Glory has been discontinued . I'm excited to try both. Both my boyfriend and I use Wen, we love it. I've heard nothing but good things about the HP cream, so that'll be exciting to start using too.

I'm planning on doing a massive Sephora haul sometime at the end of the month for summer necessities.

I broke down last night and make a last minute haul! So I ended up getting the Too Faced loves Sephora 15 anniversary Palette, BE dare to wear gold kit, Too Faced workdays to weekends kit! I have been thinking about getting the brush set anyway and when this set came along it was a no brainer for me! And I also cashed in and got the OH 500 pt perk! Soooooo excited - got the confirm it shipped this morning!

i am officially on a no buy as of right now! my only purchase will be the sun safety kit!

Re: Last Minute Hauls, Anyone?

Definitely will! There are so many pretty colors in that palette- perfect for spring and summer! Ooooo. And the workday to weekend kit, I am so thrilled to get it. I was going to purchase most of those items individually so the kit saved me some money! Bonus!

Niiiiice! I once got my mom the Murad serum too for her hyperpigmentation. She's using Ole's Enlighten Me serum now, it's a touch more gentle and doesn't have hydroquinone which can make the skin light sensitive.

Re: Last Minute Hauls, Anyone?

Ooo I may see if I can find a sample of Ole for her to try out. But you know how it is with people and their beauty staples lol. The hydroquinone explains it: summer is the season of sunhats and long sleeves for my mom.

The best sharpener I ever owned is Chanel's free pencil sharpener, the eyeliner pencil will look like brand new just as store bought after sharpening, it's amazing. I got it for free - bought one of their eyeliner pencil & it was included inside the packaging, I didn't even know until I came home & opened it up! =)

Try Makeup Forever's Waterproof Cream Shadow collection as eyelining product if you don't mind the work - a popular beauty YouTuber who has super oily eye lids said it worked the best, even better than the MAC's popular eyeliner.

I stopped by yesterday and picked up a second Laura Mercier Caviar Stick (steel) and got a ton of attitude from the cast member at my local store for requesting my coupon back (since it was good through today!).

Re: Last Minute Hauls, Anyone?

She was. But didn't think it was necessary to give me the coupon back. So, I waited until she called a manager to open her drawer. Hmph.

It's a lose-lose for me: my local SiJCP is awesome but doesn't have the brands I really lust over (Dior, Laura Mercier, etc). My local Sephora- has great brands, not very nice cast members as a whole (I've had issues- like having to spend 45 minutes on the phone with the VIB line in-store because of a prior issue).
